The book is semi-biographical, based on two articles that appeared in both the online and print editions of the New York newspaper El Nuevo Cojo Ilustrado in 2004.[citation needed] It was first written in French during Ulive-Schnell's education in Paris; however, his poor French language abilities initially lead to him considering abandoning the work. He was approached by a Mexican publishing house, which offered to publish it in Spanish, leading to him translating the complete manuscript in ten days.[1]
